Ill check what connection mine has and get back to you.

The se model does have an amp thats behind the glove box!

The cable you need is an amp by pass lead (£30 ish ebay) the lead fits at the amp end not the stereo end that your pictured shows.

There's a few walk throughs on here to help you fit an after market stereo in your is.

HTH...

I had the grom kit fitted to mine and that worked just fine without cd's in the stereo?

Mine did have the error3, but i free'd all the cd's and reset the trays all to the bottom of the stereo (top loading stereo) useing the cogs.

I dout it will be a fuse, where are you located, as i have a working toploading stereo that worked with my grom kit when it was in (swapped it about 5 weeks ago).

When you put the cd player back into the car did it make the noise like it was moving the cd trays about in side?

If not did say that when you removed the cd's you didnt rest the trays in their resting possition, to do this remove the stereo again and by hand wind down the trays with the cogs you can see.

The unit my think that theres still a cd stuck mid load so its throwing a hissy fit!

HTH...

If its pooling in the wing well, there a rubber plug in the bottom remove that to drain the water.

More that likely comming from the sunroof drain hose that run into there, maybe the hose has come lose?

Just looked at the bulbs youve bought off eBay, and they look the right type!

As to why their blowing fuse's i can only think their faulty?

As for drawing more amp voltage to make the fuse blow, leds draw a fraction of what normal bulbs do, so that's not it!

Did you fit LED bulbs in all 4 brake/tail light holders or just the fog light modded ones?

Try swapping the bulbs about a bit, just relpace one at a time, test to see all's well then move on to next and so on, you my find one of the led's to be faulty or that your wireing my be at fault?

Hope this helps.

Need to see pics of how you wired them up!

But it sound like youve wired one light up ok, and the other back to front, so to say as leds only light one way not both like normal bulbs.

IE: if you swap a nornal bulb around in its holder it still work, not so for leds!

Hope this helps, and iv not just told you how to suck eggs!!!!

I,v had both in my is200, the grom was soooo easy to fit and worked very well as a music source but i didnt use it as a phone calling source due to the parrot 3200 i had fitted.

If you want the parrot to go through the cars front speakers then you'll need a sot cable which are not the best in the world to fit, as they come with the bare essential fitting instructions!

I ran a seperate speaker under the dash for my parrot and took power from the back of the radio, ann when i had it all working together it was great, music paused while you made a call, and the Iphone tomtom came throught the car speakers.

The parrot and grom kit i fitter are the older type to the ones your looking into so dont know if this helps any?

But for your £150 you could buy both these off eBay!

Looking to upgrade from my 3gs to a 4!

Anybody due a upgrade?

Looking to spend no more than £250 and must be on voda or unlocked!

Do you meen a grom kit for an is200?

If so iv got one i on longer need!

Plugs into the oem headunit and lets you use your ipod/iphone/itouch.

PM me.

There is someone on here thats make a patch wire thats fixes this fault, do a search for other posts about this prob and find their used name and pm them.

Got a better image of it?

Much cheaper than a re-spray, i'd like to see a photoshop of the finished car before i'd jump in and do it orange,but i like the sound of it with black wheels.

What did they quoat you for a full wrap, and what about removeing it at a later date? Will it marr the paint at all?

Have you bought the fogs? As i have a spare set of fogs that i opened and sprayed satin back, i also wet sanded the lenses before i re-sealed them.

I have them on my car but as i dont have the satin headlights they dont match, they dont leak or fog up.

PM me if your intrested, happy to send pics of them.

Their off a 2001 BTW.

Ok for a start the is200 will only read WAV format and nothing else!

So if your music on your pc is MP3 or WMA then that needs to be converted to play on the Is200's stock 6 disc changer, i would use nero, open Nero and select CD/audio cd then new, drag n drop your files into there macking sure you dont go over 70mins, then burn the cd at 4x speed making sure that you have tiked the finalized box!

This works for me just fine.

Just orded a set of these in granite Sky, and the price has gone up a tad to £30.02 inc vat and thats posted!

If you mean by relpacing the factory oem one with an after market one IE: tomtom, sony satnav, then yes.

A man called Stav will be along shortly to tell you a nice story on how its done, and if your really nice to him he may offer to build you one if you send him the stuff or the wonga to buy it.

Just the radio as far as i could see, the a/c above it lights up just fine?

Thanks for the reply TG.

My mate who has a garage owns a GS430 and last week the lights behind the radio stopped working?

It still works fine just not illuminated at night?

He said he hasd it off but couldnt find how to change the bulbs, but i said i doubt its the bulbs as i cant see the ALL blowing at he same time!

Anybody had the same prob or know of a fix?

Cheers, Martin.

Very nice work mate, any chance you can show how you did the cable to monitor and aux cabling

Lol, in a word it dos'nt!

Had a 2Lt 306 woth a 60Lt tank and that got a lot more foot down abuse that the IS200 does, and that gave me 400+ every time.

I normaly get about 375-385 from a full tank.

Are the prices you quoated each or a set, as i cant find anyone doing part worn winter tires at a good price anywhere?

Where did you get the tires from Andy? And do they have any more.

Also did you get them fitted to std lexus alloys?

Ta.

Take the whole unit out again, remove the 4 screws that hold the top lid in place, go back to car and conect unit back up, try to eject cd's now you can see what stopping them comming out.

I find that once you get error3 the cd holders in the unit have become out of line inside and need to be re-alined again, try to manualy wind the holders back to the bottom of the unit when you get the cd's out.

Hope this helps.
